EnteroCoccous Faecalis Bacterial Load Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the EnteroCoccous Faecalis Bacterial Load Test at a cost of AED 1630.0. This test is used to determine the quantity or amount of Enterococcus faecalis bacteria present in a sample.
Test Details
Enterococcus faecalis is a type of bacteria commonly found in the intestines and feces of humans and animals. It can also be found in water, soil, and food. The test involves collecting a sample, such as a stool sample or a swab from a specific area, and then culturing the bacteria in a laboratory setting. The sample is placed in a growth medium that promotes the growth of Enterococcus faecalis bacteria. The bacteria will multiply and form colonies that can be counted.
After a certain incubation period, the colonies are counted and the number of colonies present is used to estimate the bacterial load. The bacterial load is expressed as colony-forming units (CFUs) per milliliter or gram of the sample.

Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, it is necessary to sign a Consent document. Additionally, any clinical history of the patient related to EnteroCoccous Faecalis should be provided.
Significance of the Test
The Enterococcus faecalis bacterial load test is commonly used in clinical microbiology laboratories to diagnose infections caused by this bacteria, such as urinary tract infections, wound infections, and bloodstream infections. It can also be used in environmental testing to assess the contamination level of water sources or food products.
The test results can help healthcare providers determine the severity of an infection, guide treatment decisions, and monitor the effectiveness of antibiotic therapy. In environmental testing, the results can be used to identify potential sources of contamination and implement appropriate control measures.
It is important to note that the Enterococcus faecalis bacterial load test is just one component of a comprehensive diagnostic approach. Other tests, such as antimicrobial susceptibility testing, may be performed to guide treatment decisions. Additionally, clinical symptoms and patient history should also be considered when interpreting the test results.
